== Sporterized Pattern 1914 Enfield ==
Larsen ([[Ivan Craig]]) is armed with a [[Pattern 1914 Enfield|Sporterized Pattern 1914 Enfield]] (or M1917 Enfield) rifle. Then Erik Bland ([[Stanley Baker]]) takes the rifle from Larsen, giving him his Colt.

== Lee-Speed Sporter ==
Survivors from ''Southern Truce'' find a [[Lee-Speed Sporter]] rifle in Eric Bland's tent. Duncan Craig ([[Alan Ladd]]) takes this rifle, later is it seen in hands of Erik Bland ([[Stanley Baker]]) instead of previously used sporterized [[Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III*]] due to a continuity error.

== Sporterized Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III* ==
During the final confrontation Erik Bland ([[Stanley Baker]]) uses a sporterized rifle. The shape and position of the bolt and ajustable sight allow to identify the base model as [[Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III*]]. The rifle lacks typical protruding magazine, so it appears to be a 5-shot version (such sporters were made, for instance, by Parker-Hale).

[[File:Hell Below Zero-Rifle-6.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Bland fires. In this scene the rifle fires a series of gunshots while Bland doesn't operates the bolt handle. The muzzle smoke looks very faint; all this allow to guess that the rifle doesn't fire but uses pyrotechnical charges to imitate shooting.]]
